Youth On Course – Play for $5!

New for 2018!

Weibring Golf Club joins nationwide “Youth on Course” program!

Youth on Course is a nationwide program for young golfers ages 6-18 that allows them to play at participating courses for $5.00.

Established in 2006 out of the Northern California Golf Association, Youth on Course began as a way to increase the accessibility and affordability of golf for Northern California youth. It quickly became apparent that there was a huge demand for the program outside of Northern California. The program was re-imagined as a nationwide initiative to grow the game, and the name Youth on Course was born to establish a national identity.

To date, Youth on Course has expanded to 19 regions, subsidized more than 600,000 rounds of golf, hired more than 115 interns and 362 caddies, and award $275,000+ in scholarships annually.

In Illinois, juniors may register for the program through the Chicago District Golf Association for $20. A Youth On Course Membership offers juniors with the opportunity to play participating courses all over the country for only $5.00 greens fees. Juniors are required to make advanced reservations based upon course availability as well as present a membership card when checking in to play.

In 2017, the program’s first season in Illinois, 3,200 youth golfers had affordable access at 50 courses. The CDGA is making a commitment to expand the number of participating courses with a focus on central Illinois. Weibring Golf Club is the first downstate course to join the program!
